Chapter 575 What is the country, nation, brother to you?
Guo Yaoshi, who had always been calm, was stunned with shock. He fell into despair as if he had separated eight pieces of the top Yang bones and poured down half a bucket of ice and snow water. He knew very well what Xiao Tang's appearance here meant.
Because Yaoshi Guo had already noticed that Xiao Tang seemed to have noticed that he would definitely rebel from the beginning to the end, so he had already made complete preparations. As soon as Yaoshi Guo started to plot evil, he would slowly step into the trap prepared by Xiao Tang. ...
However, what puzzled Pharmacist Guo was that he had always been respectful when serving under Xiao Tang, so how did Xiao Tang guess that he would not be willing to just be a resentful general in Baozhou and would definitely plot a rebellion? ?
Because Xiao Tang not only remembered the commonplace deeds of the official history in which Pharmacist Guo surrendered to the Liao, Song, and Jin kingdoms, but he suddenly remembered another Han Chinese in Chinese history who also became famous in later generations because he had sought refuge with a foreign country. A very tall general said: "A man cannot be capricious and suffer disgrace again."
The person who said this is called Li Ling.
As the eldest grandson of the flying general Li Guang, Li Ling was also a famous general of the Han Dynasty. He repeatedly made military exploits in the war with the Huns. However, he was later surrounded by the Huns without any reinforcements. Li Ling still had the thought of "only seeking death." He had the idea of "becoming a strong man". But later he fought with 5,000 soldiers against the 80,000 brave enemies of the Xiongnu. When he was still isolated and helpless after nearly ten days, Li Ling had no choice but to pretend to surrender and compromise. At that time, even Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had realized When Li Ling was forced to surrender, it was because there was no rescue. He originally planned to send troops deep into the Xiongnu territory to rescue Li Ling, but he received false information that Li Ling was training troops for the Xiongnu. As a result, Li Ling's family was sentenced to clan punishment, and his mother, brothers and wife were not allowed to do so. Can survive.
After Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty came to the throne, Huo Guang and Shangguan Jie were both close friends of Li Ling, and when they tried their best to facilitate Li Ling's return to the Han Dynasty, Li Ling made such emotional remarks. Of course, he, Li Shaoqing, was nothing A tragic hero with high integrity, but according to Xiao Tang, he is not a despicable and shameless traitor. Li Ling was highly regarded by the Huns, but he was deeply ashamed of surrendering to the enemy. It can be said that he is also a very representative figure. There are many other civil servants and military generals from past dynasties who have similar experiences to him but are far less famous than him.
But it's all betrayal, but it's a completely different situation for Yaoshi Guo.
Pharmacist Guo served in the Liao Dynasty and repeatedly stated that he was loyal to the Liao Dynasty and had always regarded military defense of the country as his own duty. Pharmacist Guo surrendered to the Song Dynasty and began to talk about national sentiments. Besides, I am also a son of the Han family. How could one not have a strong sense of national identity in the Song Dynasty? Among the Han people in the Liao Kingdom at the end of the Liao Dynasty, Guo Yaoshi was not the only one to make trouble for the Han people, just to seek a higher official position in the Song Dynasty. As a result, they found out that When the signs were not right, he turned around and attacked the Song Dynasty, and he worked harder than anyone else...
So for some people, the more they talk about patriotism and nationalism loudly, the more they will become shameless traitors and traitors.
And since the country and national sentiments can be exploited by Pharmacist Guo, how could he be willing to serve me just because of the same loyalty? Xiao Tang sighed in his heart, and he already slapped the horse with a sword and walked slowly towards the earth-colored Pharmacist Guo. go.
Am I really going to die from this? Pharmacist Guo gritted his teeth. Although he betrayed Xiao Tang first, his eyes were still full of resentment and he stared at Xiao Tang.
"Although I have long known what kind of person you are, there is still some friendship between you and me..."
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Xiao Tang suddenly said: "Furthermore, you can be said to have taken the greatest credit for Baozhou recruiting Han refugees from all over Liaodong. I have also thought that everyone's circumstances are different, even if
You attach great importance to fame and wealth, so you may not necessarily turn your back on your former colleagues and friends... But now it seems that I still thought wrong."
"Xiao, please stop being so pretentious with me!"
Having reached such a situation, Pharmacist Guo simply broke his face and said harshly to Xiao Tang: "You, an official of the Song Dynasty, secretly went to Liaodong to carve out territory for self-government. Zhemo, you are just like me. You only regard others as capable."
A helper to take advantage of! What’s more, it seems that you have already thought of a countermeasure and are just waiting for me to take the bait. I’m afraid you also have the intention of killing me, right?”
Xiao Tang paused for a moment and said: "Yes, because I knew you were capricious and rebellious. You took refuge with me only because of temporary expediency. You want to liaise with the officials and soldiers of the Liao Kingdom, and it is not because you have any harm to the Liao Dynasty."
Serve the country with all your heart. For a person like you, whoever can promise you a greater reputation, a higher official position, a more noble title, the country, the nation, and brotherhood can all be sold, and these things
I can't give it to you now, so I've been wary of your evil intentions. Now that I've seen through your intentions, what else do you have to say?"
"If you become a king and lose a bandit, what can I say? I, Medicine Master Guo, thought I was plotting against you, but how could I have expected that I would be plotted against you from the very beginning! I, Medicine Master Guo, do not talk about moral principles, and I am afraid that you, Xiao Renxia, will never be the same again.
Wei, you don’t regard me as a close brother! Now that I have failed, what else is there to say!?”
Although Pharmacist Guo was yelling and cursing, he still looked around for a pair of moves, hoping to find an opportunity to break out. At this time, he was still thinking to himself: As long as we can get on the line with the Liao army, I, Pharmacist Guo, can still make a comeback!
At this moment, Medicine Master Guo suddenly heard another thunderous roar. Over there, Han Shizhong was as powerful as a mad tiger. He used the brow-tip knife in his hand to slash it down with full force, and the shrill light of the knife turned into a strong wind, forcing him to
Zhen Wuchen, who was fighting with him, was in chaos!
Zhen Wuchen was shocked. He didn't expect that Po Hanwu's martial arts was so strong! The two fought for thirty or forty times, but he had already been suppressed by Han Shizhong's sword force like the wind and thunder. Now Zhen Wuchen, although
He was still relying on his former ruthless and violent nature, and was swinging the mace and club like crazy, but in fact he had also begun to give up and no longer wanted to tangle with Han Shizhong.
But Han Shizhong, who was equally skilled in horse riding, would let him go so easily?
"Xilulu!"
The war horse under Han Shizhong neighed, and the bowl-sized horse hooves struck the ground tightly. He rode the horse at a gallop, and Zhen Wuchen rode against each other like flying, and they were about to collide again in an instant!
Han Shizhong and Zhen Wuchen shouted loudly at the same time, and each waved their eyebrow-tip knives and mace-toothed clubs and attacked each other violently!
"clang!!!"
First, a deafening sound of gold and iron resounded through the sky, and then a soft sound of "Puff!" was heard. Zhen Wuchen's mace was blown away. In the flash of light and stone, the sharp long knife in Han Shizhong's hand seemed to move like clouds and flowing water, and again
It was an upward kick, and Zhen Wuchen immediately left a deep blood mark on his chest!
Two horses passed by each other. The war horse carried Zhen Wuchen and galloped forward for dozens of steps. The heartbreaking pain spread from his chest. Zhen Wuchen slowly lowered his head and saw a wisp of bright red blood coming from his chest.
The cracks in the nail are showing out...
Now he finally knew he was afraid.
The remaining troops of Pharmacist Guo were quickly annihilated by generals such as Yan Youxin, Yan Youyi, Yuan Lang, and Zhen, who were outflanking them. They also surrounded Guo Yaoshi and Zhen Wuchen from all sides.
Seeing that there was no way to escape, the fear on Zhen Wuchen's face became more and more obvious. At this moment, Han Shizhong rode his horse in a circle, and then rushed towards him again.
Zhen Wuchen looked up to the sky and let out a desperate howl, and he picked up the mace in his hand and attacked Han Shizhong again. However, after only a moment, Zhen Wuchen's hoarse and harsh howl stopped suddenly, and Nuoda's body violently
There was a convulsion, and his waist suddenly spattered with blood... The upper half of Zhen Wuchen's body slowly slipped off the horse, leaving only the lower half of his body sitting on the saddle. It turned out that he had been stabbed by Han Shizhong
Cut into two pieces!
Han Shizhong beheaded Zhen Wuchen with one blow, then raised the brow-pointed knife in his hand high and shouted: "The unjust villain! Kill him happily!!"
"The unjust villain! Kill him happily!!"
The other outflanking soldiers also responded to Han Shizhong's roar and let out a roar like a mountain and a tsunami, which shocked Yao Shi Guo to the point of being heartbroken!
However, at this moment, Pharmacist Guo saw the Khitan leader Yi Lacheng galloping towards him. In the direction of the Yalu River crossing bridge, Dong Xiaoxiu also led a group of people and horses galloping towards him.
Pharmacist Guo finally gave in to despair and knew that he was completely helpless in the current situation.
